Suhodol wants autonomy

On January 20 (Sunday) from 11:30 in the Sofia district of Suhodol, with increased police presence, there was another protest against the opening of the landfill. Due to inclement weather the event was brought into the local community center, whose salon was filled with more than 100 people - residents of Suhodol, journalists, representatives of several organizations supporting the neighborhood in its unequal struggle with the Mafia, including once again a group of Sofia organization FAB.

Suhodol said they were not scared, will not stop the protests and will sue the Bulgarian state in international courts. Complained of manipulation of the media and declared that they will fight to separated a new municipality.

"Rila hangs by a thread"

250 million year history of the oldest mountain in the Balkans to an end, according to environmentalists.

Despite appalling weather (freezing temperatures, snow, wind) over 1000 people with drums, whistles, helmets, headlamps, posters, transparatni and other attributes of yellow brick marched to the presidency and "Vitosha" in Sofia. There were mummers, rotating fires people, many young people and mood.

It is wonderful that so many people come together to make it clear that they do not want our environment to be destroyed because of the greed of a small circle of people.

Unfortunately the so-called "elite", which is supposed to listen to us and to fulfill our requests (and for which he paid quite a few pay) more than half a year has closed its eyes and ears to the sleaze that are done for personal , party or corporate interests.

As said somewhere, "Earth is not dying - it will kill it and those who kill, have names and addresses." And one of those people who kill the Earth says George Velchev (brother of former Finance Minister Milen Velchev), which is behind the vast majority of companies that will build in Panichishte and elsewhere.

Although populated for Bulgarian event questions arise as to the organizers and most of the people who attend their events.

The first is:

Why those organizations and people do not support practical struggle of people against illegal Suhodol open dump?

The answer lies in the following:

Why those organizations organized protests in favor of the European Union project "Natura 2000", where you receive funding? The protests in defense of Rila are associated with the draft and suggest that "Nature" is the savior of our nature.

At grassroots arise many questions that remain unanswered. Perhaps these eco-organizations do not support the practical objections of Suhodol because Suhodol not fall within the European 'Natura 2000'!
